What is inside the calendar?

26 sealed Magic: The Gathering booster packs, each individually wrapped and numbered. Which packs you get stays a mystery until you open each one.

Do the packs get better each day?

Yes. The packs rise in value as the days go on, with small steps each day and the biggest packs saved for the last two days. Day 1 is the lowest-value pack and Day 26 is the highest.

Is every calendar the same?

Almost. Most calendars have the same 26 packs in the same order. In a small number, we swapped a pack based on our inventory. Every calendar is designed so its total value is virtually identical, and the value ranges on each day cover every version.

Your 26 wrapped packs arrive inside a real Magic: The Gathering booster box. We open the boxes and reuse them to protect your packs in shipping. Some are rare boxes from older editions, from sets as far back as the late 1990s. Which box you get is part of the surprise.

When does the 2026 calendar go on sale?

Soon, with time to arrive before you open the first door. We will post the exact date on this page as soon as it is set. Quantities are limited and usually sell out soon after release.

How much does it cost?

Our fair price promise: the calendar costs no more than 10% above what the same 26 packs would cost at TCGplayer's lowest listed prices, as of October 25, 2026. That covers the wrapping, numbering and packing that turn 26 packs into a countdown. The exact price is posted when the calendar goes on sale.

Free standard domestic shipping on orders of $150 or more, and we now ship to more of Canada. No added tax on most U.S. orders (Virginia tax collected as required). See Shipping & Returns at https://www.raregaming.net/shipping-returns.
